Cherry Crumb Bars

Dear Sis,

It was wonderful that your brother-in-law and sister-in-law were able to visit for dinner to see you and Evelyn last night. We made dessert with all the yummy cherries you brought:)

We even had enough leftover to serve it for our lunch today with Aunt Angel and cousin Charity.
